Und echte Passion. 2019 feiert Boomerang Reisen bereits den 25. Geburtstag – ein Vierteljahrhundert, in dem sich die Reisebranche kontinuierlich gewandelt und entwickelt hat. Unsere Jubiläumsausgabe des Kataloges „Südliches Afrika“ reflektiert in Perfektion diesen Wandel, vor allem aber noch etwas ganz anderes, ungleich Wichtigeres: Seit nunmehr 25 Jahren schauen wir genauer hin, lassen eingefahrene Vorstel- lungen hinter uns und kreieren Trends! In den Anfängen waren Boomerang-Kunden als Erste mit voll ausgerüsteten Allrad-Campern im australischen Outback unterwegs – und sind es natürlich noch heu- te! In der Folge haben wir uns ausschließlich personalisierten Reisen weltweit verschrieben: Immer in- dividuell, ausnahmslos außergewöhnlich! Wir haben Luxus neu definiert – als Inhalt und Erlebnis, nicht als Selbstdarstellung und Verschwendung. Big enough to matter. Small enough to care! Was 1994 mit Australien als einziger Destination begann, wurde mit großem Erfolg weiter ausgebaut und vertieft, umspannt mittlerweile fast den gesamten Globus und wir bereisen derzeit mit unseren Gästen neben Australien und Neuseeland auch die Länder Afrikas südlich der Sahara, Nord-, Süd- und Mittelamerikas sowie den Vorderen Orient, die Südsee und den Indischen Ozean. Dieses uns eigene Konzept einer Individualreise hinterlässt bei unseren Reisenden den Eindruck, den Urlaub gemeinsam mit dem Reise-Designer von Boomerang Reisen zu verbringen. Weil wir individuell, eben klein genug sind, Sie intensiv zu betreuen. Und weil wir gleichzeitig groß genug sind, um bevorzugter Partner zahl- loser Fluggesellschaften, Fahrzeugvermieter und Hoteliers weltweit zu sein. Unsere Reisen und Vor- schläge sind ganz einfach mehr wert. Und wir sind ständig in der Welt unterwegs, auf der Suche nach dem nächsten, noch versteckten Reise-Schatz. Mit diesem Katalog haben Sie sich einen Teil der Boomerang-Welt nach Hause geholt. Warnung: der Inhalt macht hochgradig süchtig nach Ferne! Abhilfe schafft unser Team von Reise- Designern, die 25 Jahre nach dem Beginn kompetenter denn je und immer voller Passion Ihre persön- lichen Vorstellungen und Ansprüche umsetzen und genau die Reise für Sie gestalten, die Sie mit allen Sinnen genießen können. Der Geruch der Serengeti nach einem Gewitter. Der Schrei des Seeadlers am Himmel Nordamerikas. Der Geschmack eines Pisco in Peru. Sand unter nackten Füßen auf Fiji. Die Farbspiele des Milford Sound in Neuseeland. Schwereloses Gleiten inmitten tropischer Fischschwärme am Ningaloo-Riff Australiens. Reisen mit allen Sinnen. Kommen Sie mit!

  • Acknowledgments
    MGNP General Management Plan 2014-2024 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) prepared this General Management Plan with total funding from Uganda Wildlife Authority. Consultations were held with all relevant stakeholders both at Resource use level, Subcounty level, District level and at National Level. Furthermore an analysis of stakeholders was done which gave guidance on the consultations made. Uganda Wildlife Authority highly acknowledges the Local Communities and the entire Kisoro district leadership, who contributed to the proposals during the Planning process. Prepared by: Uganda Wildlife Authority Input from: BMCA field staff, Senior UWA staff and stakeholders Guidance from: Uganda Wildlife Authority Top Management staff Drafted by: The Planning team Edited by: Edgar Buhanga and Richard Kapere as a secretariat of the planning team i MGNP General Management Plan 2014-2024 FOREWORD Mgahinga Gorilla National Park (33.7 km2) is contiguous with Parc National des Virunga (240 km2) in the DRC, and Parc National des Volcans (160 km2) in Rwanda, all forming the proposed transbound- ary PA known as the Virunga Conservation Area covering an area of 434 km2. The park includes three of the Virunga volcanoes - Mt Muhabura (4,127 m), Mt Gahinga (3,474 m) from which the park derives its name, and Mt Sabinyo (3,645 m). This park forms part of the home of the world’s Moun- tain Gorilla population and the Golden Monkey species. This document presents a ten-year management plan for Mgahinga Gorilla National Park (MGNP). Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) is committed to the continued sustainable management of the Park ecosystem. This can only be achieved through proper long term planning which government has already identified and provided for in the Uganda Wildlife Act (Cap 200).

Physical, chemical and biological factors of the water quality characteristics were collected and analysed. Objective The major objective for the study of minor lakes of Kisoro was to generate information required in formulation of development and management policies for enhancing increased and sustainable fish production. Specific objective To establish conditions that can promote increased and sustainable fish production. Methodology Using portable instruments, physical parameters (temperature, oxygen, PH, Conductivity were measured at different depths from surface to bottom of the water column from the water surface to the bottom. Water samples were collected using a verdom sampler at depth of 1m from the surface down to the bottom were for shallow lakes and 4m or above 30m were taken for deeper lakes. Water samples were taken to FIRRI laboratories for (nutrients, chlorophyll, and algal composition. Primary production was determined using the light and dark bottle method.

  • Fish Statstics Report 1956
    PART III - FISHERIES 189. A brief general account of the year's progress in fisheries has been given in the foreword to this report, whilst detailed accounts of departmental activities in the Lake Albert and George/Edward regions and in fish farming have been prepared by the officers responsible, and follow in later pages. The report for Lake Kyoga is based on infonnation and statistics supplied by the Fisheries Assistant in charge of the area. SECTION I.-ADMINISTRATION Staff 190. Fisheries Officers.-Lists of the fisheries staff, showing their stations and areas of responsibility, are given in the appendices to this report. There were no changes of senior personnel during the year and the fact that all stations have had the same staff for several years has led to continuity of development and a feeling of confidence in the Department and its schemes amongst the fishermen. 191. Two additional posts of Fisheries Development Officers ~ere created and filled by Africans, one by the Engineering Assistant on promotion and the other by the appointment of a Makerere College science trainee. One of the officers was put on fish farming extension work and the other on general development duties. It is encouraging to. the older members of the Department that educated Africans with a genuine interest in fisheries work are now coming forward for these and other senior posts. 192. Fisheries Assistants and Fish Guards.-Additional posts of one Fisheries Assistant and two ltF'ish Guarcfg... were created to provide for increased developments in fish fanning. The establishment was thus brought up to five Fisheries Assistants and sixty Fish Guards.
